Unabbreviated electron configuration of sodium

Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

Explanation:

Abbreviated and unabbreviated electronic configuration:

The abbreviated electronic configuration uses the noble gas configuration i.e complete electronic shells. For example, the atomic number of neon is ten and sodium is eleven. The abbreviated electronic configuration of sodium is written by using the neon abbreviation in following way:

The electronic configuration of neon is given below:

Ne₁₀ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

The abbreviated electronic configuration of sodium:

Na₁₁ = [Ne] 3s¹

While the unabbreviated electronic configuration is written without using noble gas electronic configuration.

Unabbreviated electronic configuration of sodium:

Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

organisms are more likely to be more preserved in mud than sand because mud is moist and wet, while sand is very dry.
